Too much to handle and absorb in one view...and I wish he could break it up into segments. But I'm content to Bookmark it and do a stop and start even though I'm 2/3rds of the way through listening to it while Cooking Dinner, Eating and Clean Up. I got through the fascinating first part. I will view/listen the rest tomorrow about China.

He's a great Teacher and one can learn so much that makes sense of "The Crazy" of our lives from watching/listening to him if so many of us weren't so overworked and attention deficited by our lives these days....Oh What a Difference his Words could Make. But, actually...I think his Videos ARE making a difference to those who are close enough to attend his lectures and his Online Presence being passed around by those like you who repost them. His audience grows by "word of mouth."

So....It's Good!
